SpeedMeet.ai

SpeedMeet is an Autonomous Vendor Sourcing & Evaluation Platform that helps companies worldwide find, connect with, and evaluate the right vendors, suppliers, agencies. Your best-fit vendor may never apply. Think about it. The vendors applying to your requirement may be applying to every other requirement too, hoping one deal closes. Meanwhile, your best-fit vendor might be busy delivering great work for existing clients. They could be exactly what you're looking for, but may never even see your requirement. SpeedMeet goes beyond inbound applications to proactively find the best-matched vendors across the open market, our vendor network, and historical data from 17,000+ vendor pitches. It handles everything from vendor discovery, shortlisting, outreach, and follow-ups to bringing qualified vendors into your Live Pitch Meetings or collecting their proposals and quotations through RFPs and RFQs. LIVE PITCH MEETINGS - SHARK TANK-STYLE VENDOR EVALUATION For companies looking for agencies and service providers, SpeedMeet finds, shortlists, and brings 5–10 matched vendors into a single Live Pitch Meeting on your scheduled date and time. All vendors join a virtual waiting lobby and are automatically admitted one at a time, with 7 minutes each to present their pitch, showcase past work, explain their proposed strategy, discuss indicative pricing, and answer the buyer's questions. Companies can meet vendors back-to-back, compare their capabilities, and shortlist the best fit - all in a single session. 2,400+ Live Pitch Meetings | 17,000+ Vendor Pitches | 2,200+ Companies | 13+ Countries Companies that have used SpeedMeet for vendor sourcing include Wakefit, Swiss Beauty, Zepto, Nykaa, Zudio, HDFC Bank, Spinny, Times Group, and Toyota, among others. https://speedmeet.ai
